Rating 55.4

Squirrel Run Golf Club offers some of the most scenic golf on the South Shore of Boston. The course is an executive layout that is gentle enough for beginners and even juniors to tackle with confidence. There are no par 5s on the golf course, most of the holes are under 140 yards. Even though you may not need distance, a strong short game will take you far on this course. Rough borders the fairways and there are a few strategically placed bunkers framing the greensides. Squirrel Run Golf Club is a very forgiving golf course overall and it may not be the most formidable test but there are a few tricky holes, like the par-3 13th. This is the golf course's signature hole that plays from an elevated tee over water to a green that slopes from back to front, and if that wasn't enough, the entire hole is at the mercy of the prevailing winds.

Love this course!!

My husband and I will take the 45 min. ride to play this course as we just love it. It is a moderate to difficult par 3/4. The yardages are usually under 100 yds. for the par 3's.

A nice setting, Dave, the pro is great! The food is out of this world not to mention great prices!

You can NOT go wrong playing here then having lunch.

Very Enjoyable for What It Is

Have heard many good things about Squirrel Run over the years. Finally had an opportunity to give it a try recently on a mild but breezy, Monday afternoon. Tightly compacted holes spiral around and run parallel on the front and part of back side. Marvelous, undulating greens are fun to putt, nice speed. There are only three, par 4's on the front only, but the fairways were in nice shape. Rest of the holes are all par 3's. Water comes in to play on a couple holes and a nasty ravine on the 16th hole. We can see how this course attracts seniors, women and new golfers; it is fairly easy, short and fun to play.

For short of a 2.5 hour round, we would go back for an enjoyable "short round". Nice little pro shop also and very friendly staff!

Squirrel run

Not a very challenging course. Never played there before shot 1 over. They must have practal jokers there also. Ever hole we played pin was in crooked. Leaning over hard destroying the cup. Something they should have addresssed. The greens rolled nice. Overall ok experience. Much better courses within 30 mins. May never return. Good course for beginners I would imagine.

Great Short Course!

A favorite 'almost' par 3 course. There are 3 par 4 holes. Course is always in good condition. A great place to walk 18 holes and challenge your short game. Very friendly staff. Try to get here this season!

Great Little Course

My husband and I loved this course. Small and quaint with a couple of challenges. Everyone in the clubhouse as well as golfers were very pleasant. We enjoyed this course that we will go back but only when the weather is nicer. We played with 15 mph winds and 38 degrees but sun was out.

Hidden gem

What a find! Spotted it on GolfNow SE MA and knew it was in our area. 2 couples played in 3 hrs walking. Mostly well designed par 3's with couple of par 4's added in. Staff and conditions could not have been nicer. Family owned and very welcoming. Adult beverages on patio following. A "don't misss" if you are in the area.
